Good idea. Need to standardize how you accept answers. I was able to type just last names for some (Andrew Jackson, Shakespeare and Edison), but had to type the full name for Babe Ruth, Michael Jackson and Davy Crockett. Also, please correct spelling for Louis XIV.

I don't want people to get both Andrew and Michael Jackson just by typing "Jackson."

not a bad idea for a quiz, but way too much time. when i saw the time remaining, i assumed i would be able to scroll down and have a lot more to answer. no, just ten.
